November 12, (THEWILL) – In a comfortable 2-0 victory at Schalke, the sensational Jamal Musiala set up both goals, as Bayern Munich finished the pre-World Cup season six points clear atop the Bundesliga standings.
Although Schalke performed admirably in withstanding many waves of early pressure, Serge Gnabry handed Bayern the lead on Saturday, thanks to Musiala’s deft flick.
The gifted forward, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, was then set up by the Germany international to score against his previous team, giving Julian Nagelsmann’s side their sixth straight league victory with their early season stuttering now a forgotten episode.
Ahead of the two-month break, the outcome puts Bayern six points ahead of second-placed RB Leipzig, however Union Berlin or Freiburg might close that gap by two points when they meet on Sunday.
